Taking our minds off things, what are you watching??

I've always liked learning about people with "special" talents. This is an old one that my cousin in North Carolina sent to me about the Sling Shot Man. Hope you all enjoy it as much as I did: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ieWrWLjii0

@johnbishop That was amazing! He can get rid of bugs and weeds without the use of chemicals. He's truly a "green-man"!

@hopeful33250 I laughed when I saw him do that too!

@johnbishop- Loved the video John! I grew up using a sling shot because my dad being a cop in NYC didn't approve of owning a BB gun so I started making my own sling shots. I could pick off a bird or rabbit with one shot from 15 yds. easily. Loved to shoot frogs to stun them and we would tie them onto our fishing line to lure in turtles. I had a "turtle farm as a kid in my backyard using an old submerged tub for the pond. Lots of fun! Jim@thankful

Hi Jim! @thankful, I loved using a slingshot as a kid also. Never really was that good though but had a lot of fun plunking cans and bottles and a few mean dogs on my paper route. 🙂

@johnbishop A cool talent! I have weeds he could practice on here ;)) Actually, I watched it with no sound, because then I focused more on the facial expressions.

This past week I had the good fortune to find and watch 2 really very good, heartwarming movies based on true stories (my favorite types).

Noble (2014) - Based on the life of Christina Noble who grew up in poverty in Ireland and did some amazing work in Vietnam for homeless children of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Official Trailer - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogoeU_59XEM

Same Kind of Different as Me (2017) - Really enjoyed this one also - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PltWQ8kQe04

@johnbishop Where do you watch these? On YouTube?

@becsbuddy I watched the movies on Amazon Prime video but they may be available on Netflix or other streaming channels. The trailer for most movies can be seen on YouTube.
